gtso first off the term gypsy itself is an offensive term on a similar level to the word nigger so theres that before we even get into your actual arguments this is simply not true you may personally find the word gypsy offensive and you may be part of a minority subculture that thinks the word gypsy is offensive but by very virtue of the fact that i guarantee the majority of ill speak for american people have never even heard of an alternative word for gypsy or let alone that its offensive at all it literally can not be as offensive as the word nigger i might as well be able to say bleep bloop is as offensive as nigger because i personally think so i mean yeah i guess bleep bloop offends me as much as nigger if i say it does but i dont think that was your assertion
